A member asked:
What is the meaning of the diagnosis cervical kyphosis ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See your doctor: Cervical kyphosis is a reversal of the normal cervical curvature (which should be lordosis). This could be due to injury, muscle spasm, or congenital defect. It is quite unusual. After your doctor investigates, referral to a physical therapist to instruct you on a customized exercise program should help.
